Don't GIVE UP LIW!!! thats just wrong!! HAHAHA

i'm giving up junk in general.

i'm not catholic, but i work in a catholic TV station and i've been thinking of converting forever this year i am REALLY going to give something up. i'm so bad and will snack every once and a while, but i need to STOP!!

so, i'm giving up JUNK! if i am going to snack on things it needs to be good things!!!

I was just contemplating what to give up.....I'm thinking sweets- pastries, cookies, cakies ect. That would also help further my cause!

I'll allow sugar free gum.

I was going to give up chocolate or cookies or something, but my birthday is during lent. Maybe I will anyway and just cheat on those days?

Someone said they were giving up fast food with a drive through the other day when this question was asked and I think I'm stealing that idea!

Im already dieting so its the same as fasting! I have to get used to this no meat thing because I am going to get ashes on my lunch hour and forgot I have to pick up something quick for lunch and was going to swing by Wendys for a salad, but it has chicken in it!

I think im just going to get a salad from the bagel place.

I'm not fasting today, just no meat, however, I'm sick and I don't have much of an appetite, I'm just going to have some tomato soup, I think I'm going to give up pasta, I'm gonna try really hard, cause I LOVE it so much!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the reminder Jenny.. I got my ashes already and since I cant give up time ( I dont have any) and food because Im already on a diet.. Im thinking to stop cursing so much and not get so ticked off at people for stupid things (like on subways lol) or to try to nice one nice thing to someone a day even though I dont like them

i'm giving up cursing. i've developed a bad bad love of cursing and i'm really trying to break myself of it. hopefully it'll help me long term!! it's such an ugly thing but i'm so happy, i didn't have to work today, (i'm a sub) so i got to go to church with my mom and aunt
